Sunshine

I've been waiting for
Yeah, I've been waiting for sunshine
Instead of being stuck on the front line
Feel like I've been here enough times
I've been waiting for
A little piece of the sunshine
Instead of being stuck on the front line
Feel like I've been here enough times
I've been waiting for

Yeah, I've been waiting for sunshine
Instead of being stuck on the front line
Feel like I've been here enough times
I've been waiting for
A little piece of the sunshine
Instead of being stuck on the front line
Feel like I've been here enough times
I've been waiting for

Waiting on the day I make the great escape
Until then I'm still stuck up on the same estate
Pour a glass or light a spliff to take the pain away
I'm from a place where you're lucky if it don't rain today
Three man sharing on a cig
Didn't have a motor, my career, it was my whip
Made certain decisions, I was careless as a kid
And I'd be lyin' if I say it doesn't tear me up a bit
Full of cunch lines, gun signs
Cut ties, goodbyes
Sometimes, good times
More time fuckeries
Bird says she hates me
More like she lovesick
Shirt full of gravy, came up a scruff kid
Work doesn't pay me, enough to get fucked with
Tryna link Sadie, and in the bushes
Half the hood shady, look but don't touch it
Grew up in the gutters, but we love it, so fuck it

Yeah, I've been waiting for sunshine
Instead of being stuck on the front line
Feel like I've been here enough times
I've been waiting for
A little piece of the sunshine
Instead of being stuck on the front line
Feel like I've been here enough times
I've been waiting for

Yeah
A lil' gaff by the seaside
Never left Manny, I was trapped in the beehive
Grew up on fish, chips, sandwich and meat pies
Save a couple quid and go and grab me a 3-5
Anythin' for a cheap night
Drink 'til I fall, pray to God that I revive
I'm from up North, I was born on the deep side
You think that your city seen it all? You ain't seen mine
Throw it back, let me rewind
Never got my grades, told mumsy I'll be fine
Set my head straight, had some focus on me time
We only got one life and I'm tryna keep mine
But fuck it, I ain't stressin', I'll just play it by ear
Love the ends, up the ends, same way I can't trust the ends
But home is where the heart is, so I'm stayin' right here

Yeah, I've been waiting for sunshine
Instead of being stuck on the front line
Feel like I've been here enough times
I've been waiting for
A little piece of the sunshine
Instead of being stuck on the front line
Feel like I've been here enough times
I've been waiting

Fuck it, open it now
Manchester, make some noise
One, two
One, two, three, go
